This patch adds functions looking in the VPD for WiFi calibration data, and if found, copying the calibration blobs into CBMEM. Two possible key names templates are used: wifi_base64_calibrationX and wifi_calibrationX, where X is replaced by the WiFi interface number. Up to four interfaces can be provisioned. The calibration data will be retrieved from CBMEM by the bootloader and placed into the device tree before starting the kernel. The structure of the WiFi calibration data CBMEM entry is defined locally: it is a concatenation of the blob names and their contents. Each blob is padded as necessary to make sure that the size divisible by four. To make sure that the exactly required amount of memory is allocated for the CBMEM entry, the function first scans the VPD, caching the information about the available blobs and calculating their combined size. Then the required size CBMEM entry is allocates and the blobs are copied into it. BRANCH=storm BUG=chrome-os-partner:32611 TEST=when this function is called, and the VPD includes calibration data blobs, the WIFI entry shows up in the list of CBMEM entries reported by coreboot.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * gcc / g++ * make Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------ If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
